Hello!
Congratulations on your engagement and upcoming wedding!
I would be more than happy to talk about our experience working with Will Kerner.
Will is professional, creative, and unendingly patient. He really was everything we could have asked for in a photographer. Will worked with us in advance to make sure that we would have the photos that we wanted, and then took so many amazing candids of us and our friends and family.
He seeks out those casual, unposed moments and those shots were hands down our favorites from the whole bunch. Will's ability to capture emotions--while also not ever once being "in your face" as he does so--is one of his gifts and greatest talents. You can feel what people are feeling when you look at his photos.
I did want a lot of different combinations of our family for formal/posed photos right after the ceremony--we both have a lot of family members who are rarely together, plus a lot of different families within the big family, so we wanted to take advantage of that and get several different combinations photographed together. Will smoothly worked with all of them and the photos are so treasured by us and all of the rest of our family now.
On a personal note, Will managed to take a photo of my younger sister, Lucy, that is the most beautiful and authentic one that we have ever had of her. Lucy is Autistic, and generally will not even make eye contact a) when there is someone interacting with her or b) even stick around when there is someone new trying to get her attention. Will got a beautiful photo of her and it now hangs in all of the homes of everyone in Lucy's extended family. His sensitivity and tact and care toward his subjects are immeasurable and I was really grateful for that.
Will is very, very talented and also one of the friendliest and easy-going people possible to fill a wedding photographer role. Will rolls with everything and works tirelessly to adapt what you would like to the day, surroundings, and people involved.
Wishing you all the best as you continue the process of your wedding planning, and much happiness as you move into your married life.
Sincerely,
Laura Doherty
